Profile: https://flows.cv/vadimgaidamakin

10+ years of building high-complexity digital products for business — ERP systems, B2B platforms, and operational tools that support multi-million monthly revenue and mission-critical processes.

Founder of GIGY Studio. I design and develop systems with high data density, complex logic, and deep integrations. Delivered solutions in automation, EdTech, fintech, and B2B operations, including SIS and platforms with any level of integration — from internal modules to corporate services.

I lead products end-to-end: data models, UX architecture, implementation, and operational rollout. Work with platforms that define process efficiency, resource allocation, and decision-making.

Building GIGY — a Telegram-based platform for bookings, scheduling, and service operations. A full product cycle — architecture, logic, integrations, and growth — demonstrating practical product expertise and the ability to deliver real-world systems.

Focused on high-complexity B2B and enterprise platforms where structure, precision, and scalability directly determine business performance and long-term stability.
